$70 Billion in Unclaimed Funds

It's highly probable that your state is safeguarding money or assets that rightfully belong to you, and officials are eager for you to claim them. According to the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators, approximately 1 in 7 individuals, totaling 33 million people, collectively have an estimated $70 billion in unclaimed property entrusted to state treasurers. Unclaimed property takes various forms, including uncashed paychecks or rebates, inactive brokerage accounts, and unpaid life insurance benefits, among others, all of which have found their way into state custody.
